| two channel speaker/equipment consultant ricred1, hssssss. Bill doesn't push anything on me. But, I certainly like what he sells. Perhaps his taste in equipment and sound matches mine; and he plays at a high level. One could wander aimlessly for years and never end up where they trul... | |
| two channel speaker/equipment consultant Hello, @mikeyb9115 Many of us love our favorite advisors and dealers. For me, Bill Parish at GTT Audio stands way out. He is honest and knowledgeable, very friendly and helpful, available by phone, and oh yes has the very best equipment! Good L... | |
| Pass XA25 for my system +1 @zlone , I did not see your post prior to mine. Yes the Audionet Pre G2 is amazing with their amps also. I traded mine in when I got the Stern / Heisenbergs. My first taste of Audionet was their entry level Pre1 G3. It blew away the Classe P... | |
| Pass XA25 for my system Hello @sfpeloton , Good Morning! You do have a nice system and have paid a lot of attention to your digital front end! I am a huge fan of Audionet! I have owned the mono Amps, mono Max Amps and now the top dog Heisenbergs. While the Heisenber... | |

| It Was Twenty Years Ago Today! Hello @larsman @onhwy61 ! So this 1975 Pink Floyd Concert kept rattling around in my head. I keep remembering the plane crashing at the end of Dark Side of the Moon behind the stage. It came from all the way across the arena up high! Check... | |
| It Was Twenty Years Ago Today! OOOPS...guess I proved @larsman 's point! | |
| It Was Twenty Years Ago Today! I remember because Jimmy Paige looked me right in the eye during their 1977 The Song Remains the Same tour. Second row, Capital Center, Landover, MD. Same goes for Pink Floyd crashing their plane behind the stage at their Dark Side of the Moon c... | |
| Streaming from a TV Great Summary @mapman ! Certainly eARC over HDMI can carry the higher resolutions and formats, and can be very smart and clever when hooking components. But I have had issues with incompatibility on some TV's. For my simple video watching, Tosl... | |
| Discerning a difference between streamers is difficult...only me or common for all? +! @akg_ca, It really is a matter of what is good enough and to what lengths one is willing to go to get there. There is a BIG difference in everything, and everything matters. No one can tell another what is good enough or what is worth it. Th... | |
| Single Sub Position I had similar issues with a single sub years ago, and did find it best centered as well. Now I have two subs, and there are many benefits. They are inherently less easily localized, so very easy to blend frequency response and volume of my RELs.... | |
